  1. Hey,

    Just wanted some advice on which forks are good, obviously I'm guessing people will say trialtech sport but the cheapest I could find them was £90 which is slightly too pricey, unless I could pick some up second hand. I was just wondering if there were any cheaper forks that are light and not prone to snapping.

    cheers.

    Hi,

    I have a new echo lite fork, disc and Vee mounts, 45 pounds.

  2. But the prices in China are low compared to what they sell for here. You can get ZHI frames for £40 in China. So they'll probably end up being 3 times more when they reach the uk.

    If they are actually decent, people might buy them, but they're 2 or 3 years late really. Back in the day when there was only the eno and acs to choose from these kind of freewheels would have fitted into the trials market perfectly and sold loads. But now, there's like 4 or 5 different freewheels to choose from, and all the other re branded versions.

    Yes, you are right. For most of parts, which are made in China, the sale price in China are much lower. Like frames, forks.

    But freewheels in China are more expensive than UK. Such as ENO, monty, try-all.

  3. Today, I got a news from a chinese trials forum.

    The ECHO new freewheels are available in early April in China with extremely low prices.

    12 pounds for 72 points freewheel, and 108 points freewheel just 22 pounds.

    I was so surprised that a 72 point ECHO freewheel is cheaper than ACS.

    ECHO claims that the break even point is 3000 units. That means that ECHO have to sell 3000 freewheels in China to cover the initial cost, without any profit.

    However, there may be no more than 2000 biketrial players in China.

    What do you think about it? Well ECHO be successful on this event?

    And what's more important for you, price or quality?
